Deconstructing it

The jQuery

Comparing to my previous tabs article, this time I think I improved a bit the jQuery code. Also, this time you have the possibility to access the tabs directly by URL, e.g. mywebsite.com/tabs.html#tab2.

In the end…

This technique has a small drawback, the tabs do not behave as they should if you’re using IE6. But, with your permission, I’d say we could skip IE6 this time. However, if you really want a graceful degradation for IE6, it can be done with some specific targeting. Maybe I’ll do that in the future, or maybe not :)
